Dear Maryanne, Thank you so much for linking me up with the Highland park neighborhood. I appreciate your taking the time. we are new in the neighborhood. We have bought a house on Jackson Street and we have loved this neighborhood for many years. We are glad to finally live there albeit part time. I see from the email that there is a demand for a good contractor and i have one to offer to all the residents of the neighborhood. He is finishing work on our house and he is fantastic. His name is Eric Surman, his business is Trueline Construction and his cell phone number is 412-848-1334. i have worked with Eric for 10 years on different projects. He and his team can handle any projects, big and small and he is used to working on old homes as well as contemporary commercial huge jobs. Please feel free to contact me for further details at 412-953-1093 or Eric directly. I am glad to share this with my new neighbors. Thanks again for your help.

[Highland Park] Please slow down, stop for peds. in x-walks!
by Jack and Liz Buchanan 11 Oct '07

11 Oct '07

Highland Park Neighbors, Please be considerate of the large number of children in the neighborhood and slow down, and please stop for the stop signs. At Dilworth (6200 Stanton) we have a problem: cars speed down Stanton and Heberton and don't stop for our little ones to cross (at the cross walks!) at Dilworth going to and from school. And it isn't just people using HP as a cut-though- We all see fellow neighbors flying down the street and rolling through stops.... In the past week we almost had a grandmother and grandchild hit while crossing. I know parents at Dilworth would love to see a stop sign on Stanton at Collins or Sheridan (and Sheridan/Heberton is a dangerous blind intersection while traveling north on Sheridan). (Actually, I notice that in much of the city people don't slow down in school zones or stop for pedestrians to cross at cross walks- it seems like the city could make a tidy sum from ticketing people for these offenses...) I'm sure the kids and parents of Fulton would also appreciate it if you slow down... thanks! Liz Buchanan Jackson Street (and mom to two Dilworth kids who walk to school) ____________________________________________________________________________________ Moody friends. Drama queens.

I have one extra ticket to the 2:00 performance of Circus Oz this Sat the13th. It is a $40.00 value, but I would be happy to part with it for a little less if anyone is interested. Thanks, Jennifer DeFoe Circus Oz Presented by: Pittsburgh Dance Council Venue: Byham Theater<http://www.pgharts.org/events/venues.aspx?venue_id=10016> Wednesday, October 10 - Sunday, October 14, 2007 Tickets: $40, $32, $24, $19 Uniquely Australian, Circus Oz is at the forefront of international contemporary circus.
